Um board committees, uh education, nothing to report. We would be inserting that into the meeting anyway, but we're going to address that. board policy development.

We have the full um facilities plan back from you know either right before that meeting or the end of September. Very good.

010Uh behavioral intervention, nothing to report. Uh that like education would be inserted in this regular meeting if we to address it. Negotiations and human resources. We will discuss a close session. Uh finance. >> Mrs. Dbor is uh going to lead you through a discussion of finance tonight. And there you have a handout as well. at your places. So, the handout has our like little cheat sheet of terms at the beginning and then um a couple of sheets that are included in the presentation. So, I'll go through them off here, but you also get so um the unaudited results of operations. Even though the auditors were here last week, until they give us the AFR, which we usually don't get until December, um all of our uh numbers or results are considered unodudited until we get

011the numbers from the AFR. We're going to talk about our summary of reserves. We're going to go over the assumptions that the budget is based on the grants. Then we're going to go over the budget summary. And we're going to go over the next steps. So before we talk about what we're going to do next year, we should talk about how the year ended. When you look at this first sheet that you guys have a copy, it goes over basically the budget. It's just how we did last year. So the first row on it is our fund balance as of July 1st, 2024. So the first day of last school year, how much money do we have in each of the funds? So remember all of these are individual buckets that we can only spend

012certain things out of. For instance, that service we can only pay the bond out of that or our condies. Transportation, we can only pay for transportation. So each of these are their own little buckets except in the middle you see total operating funds and that's the total of education, operations and maintenance, transportation and working class working kids. So if you look across the top, it tells you what our fund balances were at the beginning of last year. Then it goes over the revenues. How much money did we take in in each of those individual funds? And then it goes over expenditures. How much did we spend out of each of those funds? Every fund is going to have an expenditure except for working cash. Cuz working cash is just truly our savings account. We don't

013spend money out there. we just that's where our money goes to state. So for instance, I don't think anyone here has received tax bills yet. So if you don't have a tax bill, that means the taxes can't be due August 1st. So if we don't have taxes, we don't have 85% of our income. So what do we do when the tax bills are late? We have to do a resolution which is it's a fancy word for it's a like a formal amount but it's a resolution to borrow money for ourselves. So if any of our funds get too low because we're not getting the taxes in. We will do a resolution to borrow money from working cash to whatever fund we need. But that will only happen if the tax bills don't come in on

014time, which they won't because it won't be August. But we have a couple of months, so we should be okay for a while. But then after you look at revenues and expenditures, you see excess revenue over expenditure. So at the end of the day in each fund, did we spend more money than we took in or did we take in more money than we spent? So, did we save money or did we deficit spend? So, in all of the funds except for three, we saved money. Transportation is another fund that we have to kind of watch lately. What's been happening with transportation is our costs for transportation are going up, but the amount of money that we're receiving from the state is going down because it's the majority of money we get in transportation comes

015from our state claim that we do every year. The state is supposed to fund it at 80%. The past year we got about 75% back. This year we're projected to get about 64% back. And when I say 80%, it's 80% of 80%. We can't claim 100%. We can only claim 80%. So the state is supposed to give us 80 of 80, but last year we got 70 something of 80 and this year we're going to get like 63 of 80. So we're getting less money from the state, but we're spending more money. So when we spend more money, that's when we're getting the deficit. So what we have to do is a couple different things. We have to watch it. We may have to change our levy this year to put a little bit more

016money into transportation, which is okay. We'll be okay. Um then the following line after that is transfers. We didn't do any transfers last year, so there should be nothing there. And then there's bond receipts. We didn't get any new bonds, so there's nothing there. So, at the end of the day, you look at where we ended up. What was our fund balances on June 30th, we did well. We did better than we expected to. Um, which we're grateful for because we have instances like the tax bills not coming in. We need money to be able to pay the bills. Um, but we ended in a good place. So, our total operating funds, we ended at about 7.5 million, which is good. The next sheet here is just a summary of our fund balances and our

017reserves. So, this is just a clearer version of what I showed you on that last page. The bottom line, it's lined out right here. If you look in your packets, the sheet right after that is a fund balance report for the past couple of months in the board packet. Each month, I'm putting in the fund balance report. So, you can see where we are at monthly. This is where we were at at June 30th. I think the fund balance report you have is as of um July 31st. So, it's good to know where we're at. It's good to know how the fund balances are changing. And if you guys have the report every month, then you have an idea all year where we are, if we're on target, and if we need bow, you'll be

018able to see that and you'll see where we need to go. Does anybody have any questions on any of the reserves? So when we create the budget, we have to first look at assumptions because our budget is the best guess of how much money we're going to spend and how much money we're going to take in next year. At any given time, that could change. So it's our best guess, but it is an educated guess because there are certain things that we do know. So some of the things in this budget include some of our personal personnel and contract staff changes. We added a bilingual Spanish teacher. We have three additional um preschool for all care professionals which are all funded by the grant. We have two additional care um interventionists for our our vital

019funded by title one. So both of these are grant funded. We also have an additional social worker which is also grantfunded. Um we've t whatever numbers we've done over negotiations based on our last close agreement with the union. Um that's the numbers we're using. And for contract positions, there are some roles we have that we have to have cert for certain student needs that we have in there. Um we also had last year our psychologist was a contact position and now this year is our salary position. So we make those adjustments for property taxes. We know that this year is going to be 3.4 for CPI. Next year is 2.9 and the future is actually projected to go down. Talk about fall. EDF we estimated it to increase by about 2%. Which it normally does.

020We just got the numbers last week was about 2% and budgeted about $50 off what it actually was. So, it's actually pretty impressive. She really She did a good job with that. >> Uhhuh. Yeah. For grants, we're going to continue to spend it quarterly and we're going to plan for the future. Our federal grants, I know what we have this year. I don't know what we have next year. Um, we're going to hope for the best and hope that things continue to go that way, but we're going to plan for if they won't and we'll look for alternative revenue stream as we always do. Um for facility projects, we're very excited to be working with Bold. Um we're going to continue to look for additional revenue sources. And one thing you're going to see in

021the budget is last year we didn't have doer but next year we are going to do a transfer which is something we have done in the past. It will be to fund a specific capital project that once we have the facilities project, we will name the project and when we do the resolution to move the money, we will list out that specific project. We're done with our work at least. So I can only imagine where that one specific project would be. There's nowhere there's nothing left to do. I would think it would be dry, but we don't have a facility project yet. That's what I would imagine. So, our grants that we do have this year is preschool for all, um the computer science equity grant, the literacy grant, the state maintenance grant for the

022jobs infrastructure, the state maintenance grants help support all the new beautiful paving that you're seeing outside, the seal coating, um schoolbased mental health, that's the one where we got the new social worker this year. It's actually funding two social workers for us. We do have idea and then we still have title one, two, three and four. >> I just jump in here. I had shared with the board that we received um additional funds from the county from the state sorry from the state. That'll probably take a good year for that to hit. So that's why this is that is not mentioned here. We still have the Giles infrastructure grant that we're working on right now. This is going to be a grant kind of like that through um our senator's office, but it's probably going

023to take us a good eight or nine months to even get the paperwork then to get the grant approved. Is going to probably take a good year and a half. So that's why you don't see it here. Okay. Okay. So our time budget, so this is our best guess at this time. If you look at it, these are unbalances. This line should match the line on the last one with the ending line reserves. These are what we expect our revenues to be based on what we expect the taxes to be based on all those grants based on the fees based on what we know expenditures. This is what we're expended expected to spend next year. A little bit more than we had in the past, but we're okay. Um excess of revenue over expenditure. There

024is more red here than normal and I know that. So we are expected to deficit spend in multiple funds. I will say I usually bring you something like this and we usually end up where we were. So even if we spend every single dollar and we do deficit spend all of this with the transfer, our ending fund balances and our operating funds would still be well above the board policy of 33%. We would still be well above that. Even if we were to spend all of it, we were we're still fine. Um, with the transfer from O and M to Capital Projects, we still be ending in an okay space. We hope CPPRT goes up more so we continue to do some great projects with Giles. Um, in 90 to expire prevention and safety, we're

025expecting to spend more next year. That's because we finally have um gold in place. Once we get the facility project back, we'll be able to work on some of the items on our life safety project. So we'll be able to move forward with that which will ultimately help the buildings and transportation is one that we have to watch. So from now until September 16th, we'll continue to monitor the budget and change it as needed cuz like I said, it's a best debt. So anything that we find out this month that might change it. Then on September 16th, we'll have the budget hearing and we'll also go over public act 1028.995 and 103394. Both of those have to do with fund balances. So even though we spoke about fund balances tonight, we'll get a little bit

026deeper into that next time. And then we'll hopefully approve the budget. In October, we'll go over the facilities plan. In November, we'll go over the tensive lobby. And in December, we'll go over the final lobby. Thank you very much. Thank you on to [Music] communications. Uh Ben, >> um Jim and I met last week. We kind of discuss our plan. >> Yeah. And I'll show you what I have right now. Um I'll go through that in my presentation. >> Okay. Nor Park District. Nothing to report but um >> have requested meeting. >> Yeah. Are we all set with the cyber? I >> I believe we are, but I I have requested a formal meeting to to hear that, but I believe we are. >> Yes. And in fact, Mr. Becky has communicated that >> with

027our group. So I I think uh he's on vacation right now this morning. I'm sure you he knows what need to be. Okay. >> Uh, moving on to discussion items. >> Thank you. So, I'm going to go through a couple things that were mentioned a little bit already by Dr. Rabiola, but uh just so you know what's been going on, too. Uh, we welcome you officially to the 2526 school year. This is our first official meeting since we did not meet in July. So, thank you very much for uh for working with us. We've had two kind of robust uh teacher institute days yesterday and today. Yesterday was um a morning of working on district level things. The afternoon working with principles. Today we did a few things together before they went off and work

028with their mentors. Uh Thursday this week we have a um I'm talking the wrong Hold on. Yep. There I am. Now I'm matching. Thursday we have a meeting with special education staff with um with Mr. Masters uh going over IEPs and how to write goals. And then as m as Dr. Mr. Mr. Becky mentioned, we have crisis prevention intervention going on on the 18th. So we've been really busy this week welcoming our new staff members. There are 12 new staff members of teachers and three pair professionals. So looking back at our welcome to the beginning of the year, we officially welcome the teachers back on the 21st and 22nd for two teacher institute days. Those are packed uh agenda days of lots of things going on. The 25th is our first day for 1st through

0298th grade. It's a half day that day. That's also a preschool screening day. So if anyone uh has any preschoolers that have not uh gotten in for a screening appointment, I think we have two appointments left that day. So uh contact us if if that is p uh preschoolers do need to go through preschool screening before they can join the program. Then the 27th is our first day of preschool. The 26th is their open house for families to come in. And then on the 29th is the first day of Kindergarten has a little slow start. I do want to thank Chick-fil-A for their donation uh for breakfast for our staff on um August 21st. Um Andrea contacted them to get some quotes on uh different items to bring in for breakfast and they uh gave

030gave it to us for free. So really very nice nice support for the school from them. Our back to school events on the 21st at Lee's curriculum night, supply drop off, meet your teacher, kind of a hodge podge of many things. As Dr. Rabiola said there's a 5 and a 5:45 session for the curriculum night part. Preschool open house is the 26th. Kindergarten orientation is the 27th. Uh the the 4th is Giles curriculum night of September. And then as Dr. Ra Miguel mentioned, September 5th is the back to school uh PTA event which is held here at Le. And I know you've been waiting for it. The first NSF bingo night September 19th. Actually had we were at the National Night Out last week which was a really nice event and I had some people

031come up to me and ask me when bingo started. So [Music] >> I think it's the caller. Yeah, that's what it is. Yeah. Uh we do still have many families who have not completed registration or residency. So families, if you are hearing me talk about that, please get that finished because students cannot attend school until residency and registration have been completed. So we still have many families that we are reaching out to. Tammy is calling and calling and calling. You must complete those. If you're not sure, go on your P school account, look up your forms. It should say accepted. If they don't say accepted or they don't say proof, then something's wrong. That's the same thing, by the way. Dr. Rabiola and Mr. mentioned on checking power school on the 18th. That is the

032same system you go into register go into power school. I sent out a communication to our families last night. Got several emails today people saying I don't know how to get into power school. It's the same system you go and register. It's all powerful. >> Is registration any better this year given that it started? >> Yes, absolutely. And and I'll have numbers for you next month. um the the curriculum fees much smoother and much better the way we did them. Yeah, we do have less um people that still owe money in curriculum fees right now. So, which is great. And as a reminder, band fees have to be paid before band starts and kindergarten um or preschool if if there are preschoolers paying tuition, they have until the end of December. Okay. Couple of district

033business. So, we had some safety meetings with the Norwich Police Department and we talked about our safety drills. We talked about aligning our safety terminology, which I'll talk about a little bit on our next page, with the I love you guys foundation, which is what we are are using with the Union Ridge, and um Richmond in our reunification training. That's probably something I'll talk more and more about as we go through the year. Remember reunification date in ridge in sorry in district 80 in Norwich is September of 26 where we're going to do a full village shutdown. That is actually going to be an event at Giles where we will rely at Bridgewood because you can walk right down the street. Um in traffic, Officer Tomaso is going to assist with traffic issues just that

034first week. Uh we are going to have a couple of additional officers who will assist with traffic that first week. We really found that helped last year kind of help parents to understand uh where to go, where to where to park. Um we ask, as we always do, for our parents to be very respectful of the community members that live here, not to block driveways, not to throw garbage out, uh things like that. Dr. Dr. Rabiola's um email to the parents next week. We'll have the traffic information and the parking information and the drop off lines. Here are the standard protocol um re uh responses that I mentioned to you earlier that we're going to be using uh starting this year. So, a hold is when you would hold the students in the classroom or

035in the area and clear the halls. So, we might call do a hold for many reasons. We might do a hold if there is a uh emergency equipment needed. Maybe a student or a staff member needs an ambulance to come in. We might hold everybody in their classrooms, keep the hallways clear so that emergency personnel can come and uh work with whatever is happening. Secure is where everyone would that is outside would get inside and then we lock all the outside doors are all locked but we would just keep um everybody from outside from coming in. So if a parent came to pick up somebody during a secure time they wouldn't be able to do that. We would keep the doors secure and keep everything locked. A lockdown is is pretty much the traditional what

036you think of. The doors are all locked, the lights are off. Everyone is out of sight during the lockdown. So that's that's what we used to call a hard lock down was our old technology. Evacuate would be if there's an announcement to leave the building or to leave the area that people are in. That could be done building wide, could be area wide depending on what's going on. And then shelter is used to announce a hazard or a strategy. For example, if there was a a tornado, we might have everyone shelter inside until it's safe to go outside. So, get into tornado emergency positions and then keep everyone inside during that time. We're going to talk more about this as the year goes on, but um I wanted to at least introduce these words to

037you today so that when you hear me talking about them and I'll remind you what they are, that would be our standard um response protocol. And this is standard now throughout large height shields park so that we're all going to be using the same words and have the same we are working with Franklin Park as well right now. Couple of policy updates as Frank mentioned the policy committee met um actually I think it was in June maybe when they met maybe July and we looked through policy update uh 118. So we did agree to approve those policies as presented. Um there were a couple of things that we had to answer questions on, but most of that was like who's your non-discrimination coordinator? Um things like that which which we've answered. Um so we are

038recommending tonight that the board approve these policies. Nothing in there was different than what was recommended to us from the press. We do have 119 we need to look at on the 19th I believe is our meeting. And um we're going to start to look at the 600s if we take policy committees. Um so last time we met which was in June of last year, we had discussed uh that we don't really have the behavior interventions committee meet or the parent teacher advisory committee meet. So we thought maybe we could take those off. However, I did find out that legally we do need to have both of those on our polic on committees for both of them. So, I just wanted to follow up with you. I can't remove those two. So, a couple pictures

039on some summer work. Now, I haven't sent you pictures yet because the areas aren't cleaned up yet. >> Yeah. So, this is the area of the stage. Um, as you can see, they just were finishing putting in the three uh area sink, which is required. There is, this is all a epoxy floor in that area, but they haven't finished the coat base yet. They would finish that whole area. Uh, the stairs going up to that door, which was once up above on the stage. And they did remove that old back stop at the back of child. So that is our work. So I think I'm going to need like a little more time to give you good pictures. Same thing with some of the work here. So summer work at Lee. Um the entrance at

040Lee which you all saw coming in. It looks fabulous. Dr. Rabby actually designed everything going on there and it looks really nice. And that the John Haley poster just went up. It's just today. It looks great. Thank you for doing that. I think that's so important to remember history and remember why your school is named um after Mr. Lee. The art room over there is new cabinets. So if you remember these were like those old yellow olds cabinets. So they have new bright cabinets. Um Miss Muscarella would kill me if she knew I put that in the presentation tonight cuz she's still unpacking. So having so much >> Oh yeah, she is. She is. So once she gets that all organized that'll look really nice. but she's still just unpacking everything right now. As uh

041Dr. Rabiola mentioned, we worked in some of our self-contained classrooms. That area, the picture of the left used to be um that the area in 121, used to be 121 where there were the mirrors because when they had um home in there and they did the sewing and people would sew things, they used to go to a little fashion show in the three marriage. So that whole area, the sink that was in there, that was a violation. All of that has been cleaned out and mitigated. And it's got a lovely little section in there right now in one of our self-contained rooms. The picture on the right is one of our third grade classrooms. So that's some of the furniture that is um up in our one of our third grade classrooms. These are hard

042pictures to take again because there's stuff everywhere. So as soon as I can get a room uh settled out, I I'll send that to you, too. Um, in our offices, that one on the left is the quad, which is the one of our office rooms that has our OT, our psychologist, and our SLPs all in that same room. They they like to call it the quad because they're all in there, and they have a lot of fun. Uh, so they have desks now, and then they have uh, as you can see, those kidney-shaped tables, those round tables. And then the picture on the right is the kindergarten hallway facing down the kindergarten. So, that's brand new. and shiny and pretty and sparkly. And that's it. The other thing I should have had a pictures of

043today, but oh, I didn't um when I took it, is the um the new center path. So, when you leave here and go to close session, if you look on the left, we have a brand new center path in there that was donated by NSF. So, um we have to take some pictures and thank them as well. We haven't done that yet. They've also donated some picnic tables at le which we need to thank them for as well.
